Steve Karg 9b6173995c Fixed compiler warning format '%u' expects argument of type 'unsigned int', but argument 4 has type 'uint32_t' {aka 'long unsigned int'} [-Werror=format=] by casting or increasing format specifier size and casting. (#1092)
* Fixed compiler warning format '%u' expects argument of type 'unsigned int', but argument 4 has type 'uint32_t' {aka 'long unsigned int'} [-Werror=format=] by casting or increasing format specifier size and casting. Increased the size of the name string to handle larger possible integers.

* Fixed copied code that no longer needs static function scope variables for text names.

Win32 ports for BACnet

This directory contains a demo program that compiles with a Win32 compiler. It was tested with the free MinGW32 MSYS2 GCC compiler and the (free) Microsoft Visual Studio Community Edition

Building with Makefile under MinGW32

Note: Building for 64-bit with MinGW64 requires extra runtimes, whereas building for 32-bit as Win32 doesn't require any other files for the EXE to work in any version of Windows.

  • MSYS2 installation is (from powershell):

    c:> winget install --id=MSYS2.MSYS2 -e

  • Start MSYS shell, and install MinGW32.

    $ pacman -Syu mingw-w64-i686-toolchain

  • Edit ~/.bashrc file and add:

    alias make=mingw32-make.exe

  • Exit MSYS.

  • Start MSYS profile for MinGW32.

  • Verify MSYS profile:

    $ uname

    MINGW32_NT-10.0-19045

  • Verify GCC is targeting i686:

    $ gcc -dumpmachine

    i686-w64-mingw32

  • Verify make is built for Windows32:

    make --version

    Built for Windows32

Building and running with Microsoft Visual Studio

  • Obtain the (free) Microsoft Visual Studio Community Edition, or use your professional version. Currently tested to MSVC 2022
  • Open solution file ports/win32/Microsoft Visual Studio/bacnet-stack.sln
  • Set startup project to be the desired application project, e.g. "server"
  • In the active project properties, debugging, set command line to desired DeviceID
  • In active project properties, debugging, set environment variables as appropriate, e.g. BACNET_IFACE=10.59.2.1 BACNET_IP_PORT=53004
  • Compile & run
